You got me to listen to 'The Donkey' which led to Blindboy's live show about Irish birdsongs. I'm thinking of that before I've clicked play so I'm going to make this my final substack attention for one month, rip this and the sequel, and listen to them when I'm mindful, probably at 3am, so that I can walk into dawn when only the crows and thrushes are up in the suburbs. PS: I saw a Knysna Loerie yesterday. Been a while since I'd seen one, and it was big.
